Ruby-Jean came to our attention at RAFW SS1011 castings where she shone amongst the ranks of potential runway stalkers.
She walked thirteen shows this season, with early starts and up way past her bedtime at Romance Was Born, walking with three-inch long fingernails.
At only sixteen she’s doing incredibly well, and with those huge almond eyes,
long long legs and English rose complexion, we see her going a lot further.

Biggest achievement so far?

“The amount of shows I got at RAFW SS1011 really surprised me.
I think getting through the week in one piece was an achievement in itself,
but a lot of girls did more than me. Hats off to them.
I was so exhausted! But at the same time I had SO much fun.”
